ATTIVA for Skin Tightening and Contour Definition

What is ATTIVA?

ATTIVA is an endodermal radiofrequency technology that delivers controlled thermal energy beneath the skin through a fine probe. The system monitors temperature within the tissue and at the skin surface during the procedure.

This monitoring helps the physician adjust energy delivery according to the treatment area, tissue thickness and degree of laxity rather than using one standard setting for every patient.

How does ATTIVA work?

Radiofrequency energy produces controlled heat within the target tissue. This may support tissue contraction and the gradual remodelling of collagen during the period following treatment.

ATTIVA may be considered within plans that aim to:

• Improve the firmness of facial and neck skin
• Support jawline definition
• Improve the appearance of laxity beneath the chin
• Tighten selected body areas
• Improve skin quality and texture where clinically appropriate

Before choosing ATTIVA

ATTIVA is a minimally invasive procedure rather than a surface-only treatment. It may involve local anaesthesia and specific preparation and aftercare. It is not an equivalent substitute for surgical lifting in advanced laxity.

Suitability, anaesthesia, treatment area and realistic outcomes are determined after examination and review of the patient’s medical history.

Results and recovery

Some patients may notice an early change in tissue firmness, while part of the result develops gradually as collagen remodelling progresses. Response and recovery vary according to the area, treatment intensity and tissue characteristics.
